Laem Chabang is the fast-growing port city you will come through when visiting Bangkok, and it has many charms of its own, as a still-tranquil region of oyster, orchid and fruit farms, mines of precious stones, great snorkeling and swimming, and a place to experience authentic Thai village living. Bangkok itself is almost overwhelming in its variety of enticements for the tourist. The city’s many art museums stand alongside less conventional sights like the Royal Barge Museum, where ornate ceremonial vessels are docked. The Grand Palace is renowned for its Buddha statues in ivory, gold, crystal and silver. And the marketplaces of Bangkok are truly something to see, with acres of fake designer goods, genuine finery and beautiful local products.
